Weightlifting & Barbell Club

What is a Barbell Club?

Chicago Strength Barbell Club was designed around the barbell and all of it's various movements. Most of our members are focused on weightlifting and/or powerlifting. Weightlifting of course focuses on snatch and clean & jerk, while powerlifting has the back squat, bench press, and deadlift.

Don't be fooled though, we have members focused on getting bigger/stronger/leaner by using a wide spectrum of traditional, and innovative, resistance training methods.
